The U.S. World Cup team will play Ireland in a friendly match at the Aviva Stadium in Dublin on November 18.

This will be the ninth time the teams have met and the first since April 2002, when Ireland won 2-1, the Irish Independent reports.

Ranked 13th in the world, the visiting team most likely will include include English Premier League stars Tim Howard, Brad Guzan and Geoff Cameron, as well as Clint Dempsey and Michael Bradley, in their squad.

Ireland welcomes the US team just four days after their Euro 2016 qualifier in Scotland.
